Default Help!!

I made a new bracket to mount my satalite radio where my ash tray is, it turned out great. I have been working on the car for hours and even left the trunk open when i ran to Lowes for a couple of things (stupid me). After i hooked up the sat radio i turned everything on to check it out and it ran for a minute and i lost the bass in the speakers and the lights in the car started flashing and a clicking noise came from the fuse box. Is this just the aftermath of me having the lights on and the battery going dead? After a minute the clicking noise stops and everything shuts off like it is supposed to. I hooked my battery charger up and thought i would give it till morning and try it again.

I hooked my radio to the lumbar fuse in the fuse box, because i dont have lumbar seats. I hope that is ok. I did this just like i have it in my truck and i have had that for 2 years now with no issues. I hooked the ground wire for the sat radio to the silver box next to the fuse box (dont know what that is)

please help
